Traction Control Problem!

[LotusCup]

For some reason, the traction control lights up on my 250 Cup and I can't turn on my sport mode... Anyone here experienced this? Please help!

What mods did you perform already? Might have something to do with that.

Just get an ECU readout at a dealership or buy an odb reader yourself. Could be anything!

Can you turn it off completely? Because in all honesty, traction control is very meh on the Elise
I never drive with it on anymore.

I want to turn it off completely! Really don't need it too... I tried turning it off and then sport mode on, after a few km the sport mode went out and couldn't switch back on... car is all stock, but my parts are all ready for installation. I just wanna solve the traction issue first before installing the parts! I just wish Lotus just made the car with always sport mode on and no traction control... made it more fun.

Read some topics and they said it has something to do with the brake switch?

Sport mode IS a TC enabled mode. It just allows a bit more slip than normal mode but it's still pretty bad.

Just get a readout. Probably some random error code.
